Enable IGMP querier (default off) for IGMP snooping (default on). For systemd netdev, add:

MulticastQuerier=yes
MulticastSnooping=yes

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/IGMP_snooping#IGMP_querier

you need an igmp querier to have igmp snooping working.
default is open flood, until a igmp query is receive by nodes ips and an igmp response are sent to switch (then the bridge can create igmp group)

Without a querier IGMP... snooping will not work reliably.

Supposedly it can work without a queier but clearly not in my case.
